Trump Urges Interim Attorneys, Courts Say Nope Again!
In a legal saga straight out of a soap opera, former FBI boss James Comey and New York AG Letitia James are pushing to toss their DOJ charges, claiming Lindsey Halliganās 120-day interim US attorney gig in eastern Virginia was about as legit as a reality TV reunion show. After Erik Siebert was nudged out amid Trump administration pressure in September 2025, AG Pam Bondi ā apparently taking her orders from Trumpās public pep talks ā swooped in to install Halligan, skipping the Senate and the district judges who usually hold the keys. Meanwhile, documents dropped by the House Oversight Committee reveal that Jeffrey Epsteinās team kept tabs on Trumpās air travel years after they parted ways, proving even disgraced billionaires like juicy gossip. The DOJ insists these appointment shenanigans arenāt a legal dead end, but Comey and Jamesā lawyers argue itās retaliatory politics at its finest.

When your interim US attorney appointment reads like a bad TV drama: Trump's pep talks, Pam Bondi's backstage moves, judges sidelined, and Comey & James fighting for a dismissal. Bonus: Epstein's still monitoring Trump's flights from beyond the grave. Legal circus anyone?
Trumpās administration playing musical chairs with US attorneys, but surprise! The judges say 'No, thanks' after the 120-day dance ends. Who knew interim meant just enough time for chaos?
Pam Bondi installs Halligan on Trumpās command, because who needs Senate approval when you have Twitter and strong political vibes? The Constitution must be shaking in its boots.
